Jack Spratt C21 Style

Peter Perfect lived his life by the rules of his darling wife, who cleaned and swept and cooked and fed him and once a month dutifully bedded him; getting that chore out of the way but to add variety varied the day. Peter Perfect, wanting more not less, and wanting not to cause her stress met his lover three times a week for sex and kissing thus each provided what the other was missing. So in harmony this modern Jack Spratt left his wife the lean while he ate the fat.
